I do agree that this fixation with side images really does not show any model at its best. It also tends to make the annual catalogue very bland. What would be much nicer is a series of views of the loco (not all three quarter like Bachmann)
Don't agree the overall concept looks Toy like. Actually I think the Hornby presentation is quite sophisticated.
The model looks very good- even though I'm not in the market for a large freight diesel. Could be tempted to buy the blue one if it was £25 cheaper. However price levels being charged mean I now only buy locos that I really want for my layout,rather than all the ones I think look nice
